    Sirenko took a lot of big shots in the first 3/4 rounds, and he has only two stoppages past the 6th round.
    I don´t think he has in him to push for a stoppage here.

    Round 6
    Dacres 10-9
    Dacres 58-56

    Sirenko fighting like a heavyweight from the 2000's. Slow, stiff and robotic. Come on, dude, put some effort into it.

    Has Sirenko even sparred? He looks like its his first time back in the ring for a while and he is just working it out again.

    someone should tell sirenko it's not against the rules of boxing to move your head.

    Sirenko looked better than this in the past. He seems out of shape.

    Darces starting to gas, but can Sirenko take advantage?

    I had Sirenko winning the first round (maybe), all Dacres ever since.

    Sirenko is slow and one dimensional.

    Not even 8pm there, so not surprising.

    Sirenko beat Michael Hunter last year by shutout. Surprised reading that Dacres is winning.

    Edit: Apparently it was Suslenkov, my bad.

    Sirenko looks like a fat, lazy, unskilled Povetkin out there.

    If Dacres had any power he would have won this by now.

    Round 1 Sirenko 10-9
    Round 2 Dacres 10-9
    Round 3 Dacres 10-9
    Round 4 Dacres 10-9
    Round 5 Sirenko 10-9
    Round 6 Dacres 10-9, close
    Round 7 Dacres 10-9

    Dacres constantly moving, landing combos. Vlad plodding forward, hooking and jabbing to the body. Overhands from Dacres. Left hooks from Vlad. Dacres still outworking him with relative ease. Even though he's tiring, Vlad isn't taking advantage.
